Slow Cooker Ham with Pineapple ****

You just don't get any easier yet flavorful than this recipe right here. I always double the cola and the pineapple, since the kids are crazy about the pineapple rings. I've made this for family birthdays and holidays, but my favorite thing is just that I can start it before I leave for work in the morning and not have to rush home and spend my lunch break putting together our supper. The ham comes out so tender and salty-sweet. We all adore it. I've made it at least 30 times since Amylz first posted it, and I have never once had to make any changes to the recipe. It's absolutely perfect just as it is!

SLOW COOKER HAM WITH PINEAPPLE

Amy (amylz)

All Recipes Servings: 14

1 (6 to 7 pound) picnic ham

1 (15.25 ounce) can pineapple rings

1 (16 ounce) can cola-flavored carbonated beverage (such as Pepsi)

Place ham in slow cooker with the fattier side facing down. Use toothpicks to attach pineapple rings to the ham. Pour juice from the can over the ham. Pour the cola into the slow cooker. Cook on Low 7 to 10 hours.

*luckymommy/Amy's notes: I doubled the cola and pineapple.

Previous reviews:1/27/14 ~ This is crazy, scary good. I could have easily kept eating it until I made myself sick. I took Amy's advice and used two cans of pineapple, so that we'd have enough for everyone to have some. I also doubled the Coke in it. Mine cooked about 10 hours, and it was sheer perfection. I have never, ever had a ham that was so yummy. When you take into account that it took all of 2 minutes to throw together, it's practically the perfect recipe! The kids both asked for seconds on the ham, which is just unheard of around here. I served it with the Too-Tasty-to-Be-Good-for-You Cauliflower Mac-n-Cheese, and they went perfectly together. I will definitely be making this one again. Soon.
